Xie Ningyuan stood in the crowd, watching Lu Sangjiu, full of life, walk toward the Seven Emotions Sect with her two senior brothers.
'Looks like she's fine now. I was worried for nothing.'
He gave a silent smile, but an excruciating pain once again shot through his entire body.
Anyone else would have been unable to bear such pain long ago, but he had grown accustomed to the daily torment. All he did was slightly furrow his brow.
'...I can't stay here any longer.'
He turned, his figure gradually disappearing into the sea of people.
「Mountain of Ten Thousand Poisons.」
"Tsk... Why are you here again?"
The Poison Master, Han Qingchuan, had just woken up and left his room, only to find Xie Ningyuan sitting in his chair like he owned the place, sipping tea.
A headache immediately came on, and he couldn't help but grumble, "My Barrier and Great Array here are getting less and less effective at keeping you out."
